Optional ELA Enrichment / Supplemental Activities for Week 2

My Most Excellent Students,

You know what I miss most?  Our tangents.  One of you will offer something to our shared conversation and classroom activities, and we just sort of run with it, exploring a new idea on the web, looking something obscure and interesting up, or when we get on a topic and people share their personal opinions or experiences.  Our class rocks.

There's no substitute for being the real classroom, and I totally miss you guys.  I have the best students.

So, to keep up our skills (reading, writing, thinking, speaking) here are three new optional activities to keep your mind focused over the next week.

Remember the quote on the wall in the back of our room?

And it's SO true!

Okay, so enough of my blabbing.  Here are the three optional activities for this week:


Writing - You Are a Witness to History

Have fun, keep busy, and be kind to the people around you.  And be safe!


Yours Most Excellent Teacher,

Mr. Chappell / JChapps
